Contribution of Institutional Research in the Southern African Development Community Region Towards Sustainable Development Goals
Regional alignment of research towards Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) is key to achieving the United Nations (UN) 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development. The countries in the Southern African Development Community (SADC) region share many challenges, and by focusing on SDG‐related research collectively, they could be better positioned to effectively achieve progress. A bibliometric analysis using SciVal was conducted to determine SADC's sc…
Temporal and spatial variation of income diversification strategies among rural households in South Africa
Understanding temporal and spatial variations of income diversification is important for developing policies aimed at reducing rural poverty. This study applied Simpson Index of Diversity (SID) to panel data from National Income Dynamics Study from 2008 to 2017 to investigate these variations across four provinces of South Africa. Findings point to the importance of disaggregating when analysing household income diversification. Limpopo, KwaZulu-…
The financial burden of African Horse Sickness
Globalisation and the increased movement of goods such as live animals and animal products across national borders can exacerbate the introduction and spread of diseases. This risk can be mitigated through adherence to trade control measures such as the Sanitary and Phytosanitary Measures (SPS) of the World Trade Organization (WTO). However, compliance with SPS measures usually results in additional production and trade costs. This paper applied …
Qualitative benefits of livestock development programmes. Evidence from the Kaonafatso ya Dikgomo (KyD) Scheme in South Africa
Characterising partnership for research and innovation in Sub-Saharan Africa
This paper discusses challenges and prospects facing research and innovation partnerships between Africa and the European Union (EU), with a particular focus on agriculture and the PROIntensAfrica Initiative. The analysis, based on qualitative research and a literature review on Africa–EU bi-regional collaborations, considers normative and structural weakness in the governance of these bi-regional partnerships. Its overall aim is to stimulate dis…
Interest in Participating in Integrated Wildlife/Livestock Land Uses in a Rural Area in South Africa
Wildlife ranching is the fastest growing industry in South Africa, with most ranches having been converted from large-scale livestock farms. This article investigated perceptions and attitudes of rural communities located in wildlife-rich rural areas toward integrated wildlife/livestock land uses, and analyzed socio-demographic factors influencing household interest in these land uses. Data were collected from 130 households selected through stra…
Reconciling interests concerning wildlife and livestock near conservation areas
Livelihood roles of cattle and prospects for alternative land uses at the wildlife/livestock interface in South Africa
Tourist preferences for ecotourism in rural communities adjacent to Kruger National Park
Cattle Farming at the Wildlife/Livestock Interface
This study examined the extent and magnitude of cattle loss to wildlife depredation and diseases and also considered the benefits from the park for households adjacent to Kruger National Park. Data were from interviews with 540 randomly sampled households, inspection of records, and focus-group discussions. Households in villages close to the park reported higher incidence of livestock depredation (32%) than those further from the park (13%). Liv…
